SLOW COOKER PORK CACCIATORE

A wonderful Italian neighbor showed me how to make this recipe after I commented on how good it made the neighborhood smell when she had her windows open when she made it. This American-Italian term refers to food prepared 'hunter-style,' with mushrooms, onions, tomatoes, various herbs, and sometimes wine. I found adding cheese gave it something special, it also made it mine.

PORK LOIN CHOPS CACCIATORE STYLE

Pork Loin Chops Cacciatore Style image

I found this on a supermarket leaflet. The original recipe used lamb chops-I changed that to pork. The sauce is enough for 4 servings according to the original recipe, but we love lots of sauce over pasta.

Time 40m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

Ingredients

1 1/2 teaspoons smoked paprika
2 pork loin chops
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, peeled and finely diced
2 garlic cloves, crushed
1 (410 g) can chopped tomatoes
1 teaspoon mixed Italian herbs
100 ml chicken stock
100 ml white wine
1/2 cup black olives, pitted and chopped
basil leaves, to serve

Steps:

Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a frying pan and cook the onions over a low to medium heat for 5 minutes or until translucent; add the garlic and cook a further 2 minutes.
Add the tomatoes, herbs, stock, wine, and olives, bring to the boil then simmer for 5 minutes.
Sprinkle the paprika over the chops and season them. Heat the remaining oil in another frying pan and sear the chops for 3-4 minutes each side until golden.
Add the chops to the tomato sauce pan and continue to cook a further 10 minutes over a low heat.
Scatter with torn basil leaves to serve.

Tips:

For a crispier pork chop, sear it for a few minutes per side before adding the sauce.
If you don't have dry white wine, you can use chicken broth or water.
If you like a thicker sauce, you can add a cornstarch slurry (equal parts cornstarch and water) to the simmering sauce and cook until thickened.
